Gathering this evening at Tazz's place. Our original plan was to bike to the fireworks downtown, but Tazz messed up his knee at work instead. So it was just me biking. Steve met up with me and I found I had forgotten my tripod at the house. All my shots were hand-held. They were not bad considering.

That\'s a great pic there. Much better than anything I could\'ve taken with my camera, especially given the fact that you didn\'t have yours mounted on a tripod. I think I may be getting down the technique of taking low-light shots like these, but I\'d still like a better camera that will take better night shots. Someday.... hehehehe

Sorry for using up all your bandwidth with my incessant comments. xD

Gene Biby's Debut

Gene Biby was an extra in the movie Public Enemies and to give a solute to one of our own, a grand entrance to the theater was planned—without Gene's knowledge. A limo was rented and everyone with a camera lined up outside the theater as paparazzo. They even got out a red carpet. The embarrassed smile on Gene's face was priceless.

Added to my VirtualBox OS list is Fedora, Knoppix, Mandriva, Arch Linux, Debian, and OpenSUSE. Figured "why not have a bunch?" Best way to explore various distributions. One thing I liked about Fedora was the ability to start right from install with an encrypted file system. Vinny says "I stick my tongue out at you, and clean myself profusely!"
